Save Me from Everything

2021 ·1h 23m · ★ 5.6 (35)

This elevated horror tale follows the emotionally unstable Emmy, who is led to Ireland where a Stranger guides her investigation of a family curse and its sinister origins.

Why it matters

A brooding dive into generational trauma wrapped in atmospheric folk horror, Save Me from Everything channels the restless spirits of rural Ireland and personal demons alike.

  • Marries psychological instability with folklore, blurring the line between mental unraveling and supernatural dread.
  • Echoes the eerie isolation of films like The Witch and The Dark, but with a distinctly Irish mythic texture.
  • Best for viewers who appreciate mood-heavy, slow-burn horror that favors unease over outright scares.
  • Not a jump scare fest—this one’s about the creeping weight of curses and emotional decay, carried by a compelling central performance.
